18 yr old seeks film experience

Sun, 13 June 2010, 09:49 am

My name is Sophie Kesteven, I am 18 and have recently been offered a place in RGM's books. However I have done mostly theatre work and now need to move into film, to prove my worth! Unfortunately I have a long period away this year (11/7-14/10) but I am looking for anything, big or small, before and after this period. Also, I am located in Perth, so productions may have to be around the area. Can anyone help?

Hi Sophie Your best bet is

Hi Sophie Your best bet is to have a look at the FAQ section - specifically http://www.theatre.asn.au/blog/na/looking_for_work_2 I'd also advise having a look at things like the Curtin student films or UWA Arts Communication short films. THey tend to look for people. Good luck Kate

FIT??? Maybe

Hey Sophie, What about the 'Film & Telelvision Institute' (FTI)in Fremantle. They are always looking for people to participate in their short films. http://www.fti.asn.au/ Have a look in the forum & blog section

thanks

Thanks for the tips! The FTI site is great, I'll certainly keep track. I didn't think of Curtin, so thanks for that too!

Film Schools

If you are quite happy to get experience in Non-paid Film work, than getting in touch with other film schools both Private and University based to see if they require actors is another good tip. Also, there is a Perth Film Network you might want to try and look up...

http://www.wizardcorpproductions.com.au/perth_film_network.htm

While they are all about Film Makers, if you get on any of their social connections (FACEBOOK) you can often hear about filming going on around Perth - Again, most of this would be non or low paid ventures.

Professional stuff is more often than not only available if you know who to talk to or though hiring an Agent.
